Good to see him doing well. I think he single-handedly keeps the national grid on their toes.
The most powerful circuit I ever made dealt with 100A continuous and 200A peak at 24V, this guy is is simply on another level I can't even begin to wrap my head around.
He epitomises exactly who I'm hoping to bump into on the odd occasion I'd walk into a pub alone out of boredom. 50% everyday gentlemen 50% off the wall mentalist. Love his humour and mad schemes
I seem to remember a few years back this guy made a lot of noise about a "free energy" (ahem) device he'd invented and claimed he was giving the plans to China and Russia as a way of getting back at the UK government for some slight or other, then promptly dropped off the face of the internet in protest(?) I guess he's back.
I remember him showing a cube with an outlet and a switch that could power a lightbulb. He eventually revealed that inside were just a bunch of lithium ion cells taken out of disposable vapes
IIRC it worked by using a big gyroscope to stay stationary while the earth rotated, causing 1 rotation every 24 hours. So not technically free energy, just taking it from the earth
I was quite worried that he'd gone off the deep end when he published that video
The way I understood his "free energy"-device back in the day, was supposedly trying to induce a current into a set of coils from the very tiny discrepancies between the earth's rotation and that of its magnetic field. How the gyroscope would play into it, is anybody's guess (alignment, I suppose?). Obviously, none of this would work, and I don't think he was in a particularly good place back then.
That’s not a very charitable interpretation. He was distraught about not being able to get his wife into the UK and was lashing out. He removed the video, he knows it was silly. Hopefully the situation was sorted.

Popping up in my subscription-feed after 5 years was a highlight <3
And it def. IS nerdy :D
If anything, we're all celebrating he's still alive!
